Question

6 times a certain number is added to 8, the result is 32

Which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?
6x +32
6x5)= 32
6x=8 - 32
6x-8= 32

Answer 1

The required equation is 6x+8=32

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

6 times a certain number is added to 8, the result is 32

Let the number is represents by x.

6 times of a number can be written as: 6x

Add 8 to the above expression.

6x+8

The expression is equal to 32.

Thus, the required equation is 6x+8=32

Answer 2

6x + 8 = 32

Explanation:

Let the number be= x

So 6 times a certain number is added to 8 which gives the answer 32.

6( x ) + 8 = 32

6x + 8 = 32

Hence this is the equational form.

On further solving we get,

6x = 32 - 8

6x = 24

x = 24 / 6

x = 4....
